Hi,
028.18.1 -> the digits show me, this is a OpenVZ 028(test0)18.1 patch
imho a good overview about 2.6.18 OpenVZ kernelpatches and -images
listed at http://download.openvz.org/kernel/branches/2.6.18/
Regards,
Thorsten

Ah, thanks very much Thorsten, I see how it works now. Is there a way
to tell from the version number if a deb file has a test kernel or a
stable one?

Hi All...
I have always been confused by the kernel version numbers and I finally
decided to just look stupid and ask.
I am currently running:
actual:/home/jim/openvz/kernels# uname -a
Linux actual.registrationtek.com 2.6.18-openvz-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 12
21:59:13 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux
actual:/home/jim/openvz/kernels#
The file name for the deb package for this version is:
linux-image-2.6.18-openvz-amd64_028.18-2.6.18-11-1_amd64.deb
I see that there is now:
linux-image-2.6.18-openvz-amd64_028.18.1-2.6.18-12-1_amd64.deb
This file has a date of April 11, 2007, so I know it's newer. But how
can I tell from the version numbers? Both are 028.18 but the newer one
has a lower number, .1-2, than the older one, which has 6. So what's
the proper way to parse this?
Also, is there a posted list of changes? I'm running OpenVZ in
production now and so prefer not to risk an upgrade and reboot unless
necessary.
Thanks!
Jim
